Mental Matters Podcast

Recent news stories about gun violence and gun controls is one part of the story as we reminisce on issues in the inner city that have us needing to vent.

Black Men have historically been known to cheat. In order to shift the narrative, we need to identify what classifies as the grey area of cheating...and we need two whole episodes.

Our brother Blair Ellison @blairondeck helped provide insight from the involved perspective. Check out our most recent episode.

Join us as we discuss our NBA playoff predictions as well as how our culture still uses playing basketball as an outlet to settle debates, quarrels while reducing stress from traumatic events from childhood into adulthood.

If you are a college student (especially in STEM/Engineering) then you know you need your WHOLE mind to be right while getting any degree. .

We did our first live show ever at @nsbeconvention in Detroit! We had some help from Guidance Counselor Caleb Boswell @talented10th06 on College Life, Self Care Strategies, the road to graduation, and all that comes with it.

Though we recorded this in March, we decided to dedicate this episode to the late #JohnSingleton after his recent passing due to stroke. FELLAS TAKE CARE OF YOUR HEALTH!

This episode, we take a trip to the barbershop. Some of the best moments, discussions, debates, and even personal advice or health tips come during your visit to the barbershop. For black boys and men, it’s an experience that keeps us grounded and mentally/physically healthy. Link: http://linktr.ee/mentalmatterspodcast

Fact: Being Young Gifted and Black can be a gift and a curse. We caught up with our pod-sisters of @shetoostem to keep it 💯 on what it’s like to be in a space of such.

“In the man law justice system, our men are represented by two separate but equally important groups: our culture who investigates crime, and the people who shame the offenders. These are our stories.”

DUN DUN!!
